Following their deadly battle with Evan in his ascended atropal form, the Pisspots regrouped with Till and Lianna and accompanied them when they teleported to their humble home in Clifton. After resting, Kaicho and Remi discovered the McGregors had skipped town, leaving their mansion in a state of indefinite closure. Their teleportation circle had been destroyed. Evidently, Karl so distrusted the Pisspots with their soul brands that he would cut off even his own access to the home.

Session 29 — Retreat, Regroup, Recon
The Pisspots turned tail and fled, leaving any remaining inhabitants of Innsmouth to their fate. They regrouped with Elida and made their way toward the teleportation circle that offered a means of escape from the island. They stopped once to search for valuable gems mined by the Silken Web, but their efforts yielded only a few shards of worthless minerals. Continue reading “Session 29 — Retreat, Regroup, Recon”
Session 20 — An Expensive Ingratiation
After Kaicho finished sleeping off his day drinking and Mavmeros delivered his sermon on moderation, Arden performed a Divination spell, asking for guidance on how to find the Morstrum parents. The response was cryptic:
Dangling in the wind,
Fear in their hearts and souls.
Look to the cliffs soon. Continue reading “Session 20 — An Expensive Ingratiation”
Session 2 — The Garish Governor
After resting in Umbria and learning through Remi’s “walkie-talkie” that “the Boss” was safely waiting for them in Dis, the party set out for the city. They encountered smoking pits filled with the smoldering undead along the way. Dis was surrounded by a gorge that acted as a moat, and it was only after offering a bribe that the attendants of the drawbridge granted the party admittance. Continue reading “Session 2 — The Garish Governor”
Session 31
To be written, someday… For now, here’s my notes. Continue reading “Session 31”
Session 30 — Is That a Longbow in Your Pants, or…?
As Argora lunged at Xavier, his shield—once pulsating with life—fell to the ground lifeless and cold as though the god Pholtus’s favor waned in that moment. His sword slashed at his target’s back, and Xavier let out a fierce bellow. Kerath recalled how Shagol compelled the others to attack one another and he fired an arrow at his friend, hoping it might bring him to his senses. Lyra saw her would-be-suitor strike at the good man she sought so long to restore and neutralized the threat by transforming Argora into a giant slug. Continue reading “Session 30 — Is That a Longbow in Your Pants, or…?”
Session 29 — The Battle of the Founderstone
Kerath took cover inside the Stagnant Pool and fired on a guard-turned-doppelganger through the window. When it closed the distance, he pulled out his not-so-trusty shortsword, attempted an attack, and clumsily stabbed himself instead. He retreated farther into the inn, but the shapeshifter followed and knocked him unconscious. Xavier emerged from the secret tunnel beneath the inn in his human form, cured of the curse that transformed him into a dragonborn by the restoration of the Founderstone. He ignored the doppelganger, poured a healing potion into Kerath’s mouth, and demanded to know where his family was. Kerath admitted they were left unattended outside of town. Angered and concerned for their safety, Xavier rushed out the door to find his wife and daughters. Continue reading “Session 29 — The Battle of the Founderstone”
Session 28 — The Worst Laid Plans
The party needed to devise a plan for returning the chunk of rock they found around Lady Tiegen’s neck to the Founderstone, which they hoped would somehow help Xavier and his family. Jade remarked that the prospect of infiltrating the city, slipping past or fighting the many guards, and restoring the stone for an unknown payoff was both silly and suicidal. However, this did not prevent the rest of them from proposing one bad plan after another, hour after hour. Continue reading “Session 28 — The Worst Laid Plans”
Session 27 — The Broodmare
The first in a selection of entries from Kerath’s private journal (1 of 4):
I’ve heard tell of a “bogeyman” that inhabits children’s nightmares, a demon known for hunting them in the night and spiriting them away to some torment. This is just a tale to frighten children into good behavior. Its power increases with belief in the thing, as though feasting on their fears strengthens it. Most children outgrow this belief, but I know the truth. Such creatures exist in this world, and their power is very real. Continue reading “Session 27 — The Broodmare”
